100pt triple IG88 (sort of)

By Surak, in X-Wing Squad Lists

WARNING! - this is a 100% stupid idea - I have already accepted this - :)

but it was funny enough I thought I'd share

100pts

IG88A (regen shield) - adaptability, collision detector, title

IG88B (cannon) - adaptability, collision detector, title

Gand Findsman - Mist Hunter title, Tractor Beam, Collision Detector, IG88D, VI

silly, yes - almost pointless, probably - going to confuse your opponent, probably :)

- for anyone interested, the only reason the Gand Findsman is in this list is its the only ship with 1 crew and a cannon I could fit in after the double IG's.

here is another version

100pts

IG88A (regen shield) - adaptability, collision detector, title

IG88C (boost/evade) - adaptability, collision detector, title

Palob - VI, Autoblaster, IG88D, Engine Upgrade

anyone else got some constructive comments on either of these jank-fests?

:)

Turret are not cannon...

Edit: I'm not sure of the constructive level of my comment, but clearly the jankiest of the two list, seeing there is nearly no synergies...

You do IG-88 C on the 2nd list. A HWK with evade tokens is amazing. Or do C and D and get evade tokens while doing hard 1 boosts.

Competitive, no. Hilarious, yes.

You could also consider the quadjumper as a ship that could take a crew. I don't see a realistic use because there's no cannon option, and adding EU is not could because you can't take the spacetug tractor array. And it has no shields, so, not even A is a good fit. But it is technically an option.

I had a feeling that was the case. Who puts engine upgrade on a HWK :lol:

I've been known to do crazy things before - heck I've actually used a blaster turret recently!

The unfortunate thing I see about triple IGs is that, most of the time, you won't be able to use 2 of their abilities except with one another. B and C are definitely the best, but you can't afford cannons and a crew carrier.
